How to prepare focaccia with instant yeast
Let’s start making the focaccia with instant yeast, pour the flour and instant yeast in a bowl,
add the milk
the water,
the extra virgin olive oil,
the salt and knead until you get a compact and homogeneous dough.
Let the dough rest in the bowl covered with a cloth for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, cut the mozzarella for pizza or another stretched curd cheese like scamorza or provola into pieces.
Pour the tomato sauce into a bowl and season with extra virgin olive oil,
some salt,
and oregano, mix, and set aside.
Take the dough, place it on a pastry board or work surface, and work it well with your hands, then divide it into two parts.
Roll out one part first with your hands and then with a rolling pin
and place it in a pan lined with parchment paper.
Roll out the other piece of dough which will be used to close the focaccia and set it aside.
Stuff the focaccia with the ham,
the cheese
and the previously seasoned tomato sauce.
Cover the focaccia with the dough and close the edges by folding them.
Pierce the surface with a fork
and add extra virgin olive oil. Bake in a preheated static oven at 350°F for 25 minutes.
Once cooked, remove the focaccia with instant yeast from the oven, cut it, and serve it hot.
